No matter how you decide to repair holes in your screens,
the patch will show. The patch, however, will keep out insects and
will do until you have time to replace the whole screen.
From a spare piece of screening cut a piece which will cover
the hole at least 25mm on all sides. Unravel a long piece of
screen wire or several pieces and lace it through the patch and
screen to keep the patch in place.
or
Cut a patch large enough to cover the hole with about 40mm
around all sides and unravel all sides of the patch about 12mm.
Bend the ends of the wire 90 degrees to the patch and push them
through the screen covering the hole. Then bend over the wires
projecting through on the back side to hold the patch.
